HIGHEST QUALITY education, everything that America has and that the Chinese want-. And still there are Retail Lumbelmen wiho will not advertise, will ;not put in a display roorn, will not have a Plan Servico or a Seruice Departmcrrt- yet they claim to be progressive and if anyone should,mention the fact that they were as far behind, the times as the slumbering Chinese they would be absolutely ,insulted or wouldn't recognize the fact that they were the one that was meant, but would think it was the dealer in the reighboring town-
(Continued from, Page 19.)
Do you see what I mean, Mr. Dionne? I guess it will have to be that we Progressive Retail Lumlbermen will just have to let the old Conservative Lu'mberman die, die, die, (because we really don't believe in murder-and it would srake an expensive funerall) and then the present younger generation ard the generations to come will form the Great Progressive American Retail Building Material Dealers Association with every Retail Building Material Merchant in America working for better homes, better manhood and better womanhood.
The tearing down of the wall around, the City of Canton, China, the building of a moder:r boulevard around the city in its place, the building of two straight streets across the city, one hundred and seventy-five feet wide-and other streets eighty-five feet wide, until they have twenty-five miles of paved streets in the City of Canton alone. might well represent the Retail Building Material Merchants of the U. S. and the rest of China, the Retail 'LUMBER Yards !
It is the same kind of a problem that China fuces-yet ours is so simple in compar'ison, dire tearing down of the old and the building up of the new, and we won't have to wait so long becausd I think if enough 'propaganda. is spread around, hard enough, often enough and thick enough, even the "Old Fossiles" will come to life a:rd we won't have to wait for them to die.
And so Dr. Chew sees the dawning of a New China-I see the dawning of the New Era for the Retail Building Material Merchant. What do you see ?
Sincerely,
ALBERTA RUTH BREY
P. S. Don't you think in most 'cases this same thing would apply to the Wholesale Lumber Dealers as well? I DO!
